Chapter 65 - Splitting Up
65 Splitting Up
Under the sea, a Giant Turtle Crab was currently following Su Yu’s instructions and was assuming a defensive posture.
Su Yu slowly mobilized his mental strength and controlled the water around him, forming water ropes that trapped the Giant Turtle Crab.
However, before Su Yu could reveal a look of joy, the Giant Turtle Crab broke free from these ropes of water in the next second.
“Based on my current mental strength and disregarding the island’s additional effect, it seems that I’m still not strong enough to mobilize the water around me to trap an Ordinary Fearsome Beast like the Giant Turtle Crab.”
After seeing that the Giant Turtle Crab easily broke free and was now looking at him with a slightly confused gaze, a thought flashed across Su Yu’s mind.
“Since this won’t work, why don’t I use another method?” Su Yu came up with an idea and slowly mobilized his mental strength again. Then, he condensed two water balls and firmly attached them to the Giant Turtle Crab’s two small eyes.
Su Yu’s actions caused the Giant Turtle Crab to panic. This was because the water ball that contained mental power blocked the Giant Turtle Crab’s vision, causing it to be unable to see the nearby situation clearly.
Even as the Giant Turtle Crab sped up and tried to shake off the water ball out of its eyes, it was useless. At this moment, the two water balls seemed to be welded to its small eyes.
Seeing that the crab boss was hurling around aimlessly in the water, Su Yu quickly dispersed the water ball on its eyes. Otherwise, it would not be fun and games if it bumped into him later.
When it realized that it could see again, the Giant Turtle Crab looked at Su Yu with a resentful gaze.
In response, Su Yu accelerated and swam to the Giant Turtle Crab’s side. He patted its shell and comforted it.
Then, before the crab boss could be happy, Su Yu condensed another stream of water power and attached it to its shell. Then, Su Yu used an ordinary broadsword to casually slash down.
When the saber struck the water shield condensed from water power, Su Yu felt a force begin to continuously try to dissipate the force in his hand.
However, this water shield could not completely negate the strength in Su Yu’s hand. In the end, Su Yu’s casual slash still hit the crab shell of the Giant Turtle Crab.
Fortunately, Su Yu used an ordinary. Coupled with the strong defense of the crab shell, Su Yu’s slash did not leave any traces on its shell.
After testing the attack and defense of the magical technique, Su Yu casually patted the Giant Turtle Crab, indicating that it could leave.
After letting the crab boss go back to patrol, Su Yu accelerated and rushed out of the water. Then, he nimbly climbed onto the island.
Soon after Su Yu climbed onto the island, the sky in the sky also began to darken.
After picking up the other sphere that contained the water controlling technique that was thrown on the ground, Su Yu returned to the small villa. Su Yu changed his clothes in the bedroom, then went downstairs to the living room. The dining table in the living room was already filled with food and delicious fruits.
Indeed, it was convenient to have an AI robot to cook for him. Otherwise, even if Su Yu had the ingredients, he would not be able to cook anything delicious. He did not have culinary skills of that level!
After quickly finishing the dishes on the table, Su Yu walked to the small balcony on the second floor and lit a cigarette. He looked at the distant sea and began to smoke. At this moment, Su Yu’s gaze was extremely deep. No one knew what he was thinking.
[Ding! The trade item you uploaded has been sold. Please extract the items.]
Suddenly, Su Yu heard the notification of a successful transaction.
Currently, Su Yu only had one long-term trade offer that he pinned on the trading channel, which was to buy the island fragments.
In Su Yu’s opinion, it was worth it to exchange a small amount of food and fresh water, as well as some unused resources, with the island fragment.
“Extract.” Very quickly, Su Yu extracted the island fragment. A +1 island area fragment appeared in his hand.
After casually using it, the area of Su Yu’s island increased by an insignificant one square meter. After smoking the last of the cigarette in his hand, Su Yu casually flicked the cigarette butt and sent it flying.
Su Yu returned to the bedroom and took out the other Soul Scripture—First Volume jade slip. This second jade slip was still useful to Su Yu. It could deepen Su Yu’s comprehension towards the use of the Soul Scripture. After all, the usage is similar to other jade slips of the same type. It is used to allow the inheritor of a certain technique to quickly master it.
After pressing it against his forehead, the Soul Scripture jade slip in Su Yu’s hand emitted a hazy white light. Then, patterns and words quickly surged into Su Yu’s mind.
Ad Su Yu, circulated the Soul Scripture according to these patterns and words, he reached a new comprehension in his mind. Even the speed at which he circulated his cultivation technique increased greatly.
…
Su Yu cultivated the Soul Scripture for the entire night. Afterwards, he glanced at his personal attributes panel and realized that his Spirit Stats had increased by another point. Su Yu felt somewhat happy about this.
After Su Yu who quickly finished his breakfast, he left the small villa.
Today, Su Yu was not going to stay on the island to fish. He was going to bring Goblin 1, Skeleton 1, and the others out to plunder the nearby islands.
If he wanted to upgrade the level of his island, he could not just rely on fishing and the rewards from the treasure chests for being on the rankings. Su Yu felt that this would take forever, it’ll be a cold day in hell when he could upgrade his island by one level. The progress of this was far inferior to plundering.
This time, Su Yu was prepared to split into two groups. He would bring two Goblins, a few Broadsword Skeletons, a few Bandaged Mummies, and Merman 1.
Then, Goblin 1 would bring Skeleton 1, a few Broadsword Skeletons, a few Bandaged Mummies, and Merman 2. The two Giant Turtle Crabs were left in charge of guarding the island.
At this moment, there was a slight change in Skeleton 1’s body. This was because Su Yu had used the extra Water Manipulation Technique sphere on Skeleton 1 this morning.
This resulted in the external skeleton of Skeleton 1 showing a combination of white, Black Iron, and light blue.
This might be the first Broadsword Skeleton in the history of the Undead race to master the water-controlling technique!
Su Yu did not feel that it was a waste to the water-controlling technique sphere on Skeleton 1. After all, he didn’t have any use for it anymore. He might as well use it on Skeleton 1, who had the highest potential at the moment, so that he could make up for its shortcoming of not being able to fight in the water.
